I've seen 'Sharktopus'—it belongs in the SyFy original canon alongside 'Mansquito' and 'Ice Twisters'. Honestly I think they have random title generator and then make the movies based on whatever it comes up with—Next week? 'Yeti Fighter Pilot' followed by 'Were-Squid' and "Llambies: the Zombie Llamas".

I actually watched 'Triumph of the Will' via Netflix Streaming a week or so ago. I wouldn't say I enjoyed it but feel like it's the kind of thing you should see but not own—like 'Birth of a Nation'. I actually had a copy of Dixon's 'The Klansman' leftover from a lit class and finally just got rid of it—the only one of…

I think Cary Elwes would be an excellent candidate for a Random Roles because—well, he's had a lot of roles and some of them are pretty random. In fact, that's why I would wager he wasn't a bigger star. He had the looks to be a leading man—maybe not an action hero, but he could've been the competition in a series of…

I suggest the following triple feature
'Zodiac'
'All the President's Men'

He's another reason
I didn't hate 'Jennifer's Body' like I expected to—as soon as he showed up, with feathery hair(!) and for some reason a hook for a hand(!!), I just gavesthe film much more latitude than I maybe otherwise would have.

But
Do they yet have New York Dolls Dolls? 'Cuz I want one.

Really? The Irish got corned beef and cabbage from the Jews? What'd the Jews get in return (and don't say a fat lip).

No—what's the story?

What was the question again?
…

'Get a Life'
And 'It's Garry Shandling's Show' are the shows I mention most whenever people try to make the case that anything about 'Seinfeld' was innovative.

Freedom of Speech! Thank god the internet exists to allow racists to put into words exactly what they think without losing friends, jobs, scholarships, lovers, clients, congressional seats, reputations or custody battles.

I knew Yaphet Kotto had died!

I read that as Bill Mumy—AKA Will Robinson—and I was kind of disapointed to find that it wasn't. Especially since the Robot kind looked like a beer keg with arms.

Here's a time travel paradox head scratcher—If this is the first time we've gone through this iteration of reality, it's possible that time travel just hasn't been invented yet. You know we have to get there before we can come back—so all of history has to happen WITHOUT time traveler intereference at least once…

Didn't he produce that TV movie 'I Want to Hold Your Hand'? The one with Eddie Deezen and Wendie Jo Sperber about the hijinks surrounding the Beatles appearance on Ed Sullivan directed by Robert Zemeckis? That wasn't ever in theaters right? IMDB makes it out to be a real film—and maybe it was. I dunno. I saw it on TV…

It'll be like 'Dinosaur Comics' and each episode would have the same visuals but the dialogue will be changed.

Poor PBS. I'm all for those other networks (speaking of dinosaurs) going belly up, but I grew up watching Nat Geo when it was specials and Cosmos and Nova and Connections and Nature and Mystery and Masterpiece Theatre and Great Performances and Alive from Off Center and I ain't even got to the children's…

I'm not saying all or nothing—I'm not convinced that that false dichotomy isn't part of the problem in America. We don't most of us learn how to drink in moderation in a social context—at dinner for instance—but rather in a binge context illegally and in secret. This then colors our perception of alcohol ever after.…

Here's something on the food connection:

I've only ever experienced one thing that "cured" a migraine in the sense that I had one and it went away completely and immediately—pure oxygen. Weed can ameliorate the effects such that the pain is tolerable but it's clearly still there. As for long term cures and or prevention—I never got migraines in college,…
